“Dear PoPville,
Has anyone contacted you about clothing donations for Hurricane Harvey victims? I would love to donate some gently used clothing to the folks down in Texas but wasn’t quite sure who/where was accepting.”
From an email:
“Join us for an uplifting evening of DC talent at the Colony Club this Friday, September 8 at 9 pm (doors at 8:30). Attendees are encouraged to donate anything they can; Colony Club will contribute 10% of bar sales to audience donations. Donations will go to Houston-based organizations that center women, children, LGBTQ+ resources, residents experiencing homelessness, people of color, and displaced immigrant communities for a #JustHarveyRecovery.
Here is a list of vetted organizations that we will choose from.
The show is produced by an environmental science professional (Charise Johnson, Union of Concerned Scientists) and a DC comedian (Brittany Carney). Charise helped co-organize this Spring’s “Laughs for Science” fundraiser, and Brittany produces a monthly show called “Fale University”, as well as fundraiser shows benefiting Planned Parenthood and Black Lives Matter DC. We have compiled a fantastic lineup consisting of DC’s most hilarious and talented:
– Chris Milner (DC’s own “Specific Ignorance”)
– Natalie McGill (2 Dope Queens)
– Tim D. Miller (TruTV)
– Dylan Meyer (Kennedy Center)
– Brittany Carney (DC Improv Comedy Club)
– Steven Chen (DC Drafthouse Comedy Theater)
With music by:
– Romane Walters (Romane & Lettuce)
– Planet Nine (Songbyrd Music House)”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
